LEADERSHIP DIALOGUE SERIES
PAGE | 20
“I hope this dialogue creates a space where people can openly explore what effective leadership looks like in times of crisis, which includes heightened stress and pressure. Similarly, I hope participants walk away from this experience with a new perspective on the leadership techniques applied by leaders today in global conflicts. Every dialogue offers me something new to consider in the world of leadership. Through the engagement of the attendees, I gain deep insight into the variety of responses leaders may employ to the same issue. In this way, I am constantly reminded that strong leadership isn’t necessarily about having all the answers, but instead about staying engaged and curious. I feel incredibly grateful to be a part of a community and team that values growth in various forms, where individuals can show up and be vulnerable, ultimately contributing to constructive dialogue and learning. I hope that others feel this way as well, and I encourage everyone to engage with important discussions like this around campus and the world as well.” - Trace Schroeder ’29
“I was surprised to see the range of perspectives on competitive leadership. There were people who believed it was necessary to create improvement, and those who saw less space for it in academic institutions, where the goal should be learning and encouraging new opportunities, rather than creating competition. Throughout the dialogue, people were able to discuss the differences in their views and find common understanding while understanding the contexts for people’s perspectives.” - Amrit Dhaliwal ’27
“For the Leadership During Crisis: In Practice Dialogue, our goal is to build on the momentum of students who are engaged in conversations about leadership and are excited to contribute during the dialogues. We aim to do this by asking students to highlight specific examples from their learnings and personal lives on the topic of crisis practice. This way we can get at more specific and productive discussion on this pressing topic.” - Vivienne Arndt ’28
